Dry Creek Vineyard was the first new winery to be established in the Dry Creek Valley since the days of Prohibition, when David Stare arrived in 1972. Today, Dry Creek Vineyard wines are easy to recognise due to the spirited yacht paintings that appear on the label of each bottle. David Stare's pioneering vision launched a new era of premium wine production in the Dry Creek Valley. Inspired by his travels throughout the traditional wine regions of France and Germany, Dave's focus was ever on quality. To persue this focus, small batch winemaking has been adopted because individual-lot winemaking promotes increased knowledge about how to manage each vineyard while offering maximum blending options and enhanced quality control. Dry Creek Vineyard insists on crafting each lot of wine separately with each vineyard lot crushed, fermented, and barrel aged separately. Approximately 75-100 different wines are produced each vintage, where fining is the exception, not the rule. Only produced in exceptional years this Reserve is aged 24 months in American and French oak to produce a wine of sumptuous and complex character. A deep ruby red coloured wine with aromas of blackberry, cassis and a touch of herbs there is a hint of spice that develops in the glass. Full-bodied with a wonderfully textured mouthfeel there are flavours of blackberry and cassis that abound in this elegantly structured wine. A lingering finish softens nicely with a touch of clove, tobacco and vanilla. (12 x 75 cl)
